Good morning, UX! And in case I don't see ya, good afternoon, good evening, and good night!
Briefly

Imposter Syndrome is a common psychological pattern experienced by individuals regardless of their career level, where they feel unworthy of their accomplishments. This internal struggle leads to a fear of being exposed as an 'imposter'. A parallel is drawn to the film 'The Truman Show', illustrating that even when everything seems perfect on the surface, individuals can feel disconnected and question their reality. The narrative highlights the isolation and pressure many face in maintaining a facade, urging a need for authenticity in professional environments.
This is something many of us experience, no matter what level they are at in their careers. You could be a junior wondering if you even know what you’re doing in Figma, or a seasoned leader asking themselves if they deserve to be in that position.
Outwardly, Truman's life seems perfect - a house, a job, a routine... but somewhere deep down, Truman feels that something isn't right. There are recurring strange events, people who seem to be following a script... A feeling of fakeness.
